Good luck to you.

I've done a few moves, but never an "empty nest move". Must be an exciting and scarey time for you. Welcome!

Hi & welcome. Good luck to you in your move. Moving can certainly be a stressful time.

I grew up in Florida and LOVED it. Property Taxes are crazy high but other than that it's a great place to live. Enjoy!

I laughed when I read you post. I have 5 children, 4 in college, one high school senior. I still have 4 living here again/was down to two, then one and they all started coming back.................ARGHHHH

I am jealous of you..............LOL. Don't get me wrong I love my children I just did not plan on having them here this long! I did not realize they would come back!!!!!

Good luck in your move! Below is a snapshot of my house on an hourly basis! LOL! Uh that is me hiding under the chair.........

Where in the Sunshine State are you moving? With your wide range of skills, I can probably help you get into Sarasota Memorial Hospital. Great Hospital, Beautiful location and very, very nurse friendly.
